I believe
that the idea of personal responsibility of the power can make the world really
better. I have heard about this idea in Ukrainian mass media; as far as I can
see, it is a component of the “Maidan ideology”. Ukraine
is moving towards implementing this idea: the Ukrainian President has very much
power (as far as I can see), unlike, for example, the US president.
In autumn 2014 President Poroshenko initiated pre-term parliamentary elections.
His aim was to get a loyal parliament, which is able to perform social reforms.
I hope, in future the Ukrainian President will get even more legislative power.

However,
giving the legislative power to the President raises new problems – one man is
not enough competent in the juridical subjects and can easily make faults. I
think that this problem can be mostly solved if the parliament obtains a
“consultative” function, so it is able to postpone a President’s decision and
impose the President some compromise.

Besides
that, such “consultative” parliament, together with some other elected
representatives of power, will be able to make the President perform a public
report of his work. The parliament will be able to raise questions to the
President, and the latter will be obliged to answer these questions.

I suppose
that in order to implement this, a collective guarantor of constitution is
required, which is described in my book. This is very difficult to implement;
but I hope that in Ukraine
some of these ideas will be partly implemented soon enough.
